I used butter when I was a kid. It's too salty now. If Noodles and his son, some BBS'ers, and the customers at my store like artichokes, maybe I'll try one.

I said, "Hi, Greg. I'm the creepy girl." He chuckled, then wanted a handshake and I gave it. I wanted a hug and he gave it. One of his sons was there, too. Cute. Then Pete got him to autograph my sign for me because I was too polite to ask myself since he was on his way to eat. Pete also took this of photo of him holding it. - 8/2/2014.https://twitter.com/PeteParada/statu...56317329436672

But hummus is goooood! Why would tastes buds become paralyzed from it? It's great on pita, so why not an artichoke?

Edit: Jojan, that picture made me laugh, actually out loud. Thank you for that.

Huh? I eat it all the time - I have a couple Israeli friends here who put every single hummus I've had in life before I met them to shame. Every holiday or party I get to indulge in fresh, homemade Israeli hummus - and my taste buds are fine!

I prefer to dip the artichoke leaves in mayonnaise but my son prefers melted butter. Which is the correct dip for artichoke leaves, and please explain why? Feel free to use diagrams and show your work.

I'm sorry, Noodles, but your son is correct. Mayonnaise is too viscous to quickly and efficiently cover every bit of the artichoke leaf before you put it in your mouth. You also need a bit of salt to get the bitterness out.

And Llamas, I'm also sorry but you are nuts. Hummus is delicious but not an acceptable dip for artichoke leaves.
